Chicken Tender Strips

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into strips, about 1 inch wide. Season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.

  2. 2

    Set up the Breading Station

    Place the flour in one bowl, beaten eggs in another bowl, and breadcrumbs in a third bowl.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken Strips

    Dredge each chicken strip in flour, shaking off the excess. Dip into the beaten eggs, then coat with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  5. 5

    Fry the Chicken Strips

    Carefully add the breaded chicken strips to the hot oil in batches. Fry for 4-5 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through, turning occasionally.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the fried chicken strips and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with a side of peppercorn ranch dressing.
